Integrative, trauma-focused, culturally sustaining counselling and psychotherapy in the heart of Adelaide.

OUR WELLNESS COLLECTIVE

Multicultural mental health services in Adelaide

Our Vision

At Our Wellness Collective, we envision a world where mental health care is integrative, trauma-focused and informed, as well as culturally sustaining—a space where diversity is not just celebrated but represented.

We are dedicated to providing compassionate, respectful, and empowering therapy services that adapt to the unique needs of every individual. We are committed to bridging gaps in mainstream mental health care, especially for those navigating the complexities of intersecting identities—embracing the full spectrum of diversity such as cultural, linguistic, racial, cognitive, neurological and in lived experiences.

Our mission is to reframe the standard of care by ensuring that therapy approaches an services meet the individual, not the other way around. We believe that connection is the key to reaching lasting change. We believe that when individuals heal, their communities do too. 

WHY CHOOSE

Our Wellness Collective

Integrative approach to therapy

We combine evidence-based therapies like TF-NT, ACT, DBT and EFT and TF-CBT with integrative practices like somatic psychotherapy, mindfulness-based therapies, and ecopsychotherapy.

Culturally Sustaining and Multilingual Services

We are committed to the preservation, adaptation, and celebration of cultural identities and practices in ways that support long-term well-being. We recognise the cultural values, traditions, and lived experiences that shape how people experience, understand, and heal from challenges. We are flexible and responsive to our clients by acknowledging the continued impact of cultural trauma and history on all marginalised people. We offer therapy in over 8 languages and are always working to increase this list, breaking barriers for non- English native clients.

Cost conscious and sustainable pricing options

We offer a combination of pricing options for our clients, and partner with each person to create a wellness journey that is cost conscious and effective for each client’s personal circumstance.

Trauma- Focused and Trauma-Informed, Inclusive Environment

We are trauma- focused and trauma-informed. We prioritise safety, empowerment, and healing for people from all walks of life while also acknowledging that healing required not only understanding trauma but actively working through it with specialised methodologies and approaches. We celebrate and represent diversity in our team and in the clients we serve, welcoming people of all identities, cultures, and backgrounds.

“Life doesn’t make any sense without interdependence. We need each other, and the sooner we learn that, the better for us all.”  — Erik Erikson

“I’ve been seeing Vanessa for a number of years now. She personally is such a compassionate and supportive professional and I would highly recommend her to anyone that feels they need the services of a psychotherapist (everyone should)! I’m so happy for her that she has started her own business and that she has employed staff that also encompass the care and compassion that she shows her clients. Such a welcoming space.”

— L. D.
